This dress is gorgeous and snug…no stretch. I can wear a medium in a dress because of my small waist but because of the arms straps I decided to get a large and that still didn’t help. The feathered arms straps had no stretch none! I couldn’t even zip my dress, I was afraid to lift my arms for fear the arms would snap. After trying it on for just 5 minutes, the arm straps left red welts when I took it gently off, that's how tight it was. It was for my birthday but glad I got a second option earlier. Thinking about returning or getting a seamstress if it’s worth it because that’s gonna cost more.

Gorgeous dress and quality but the feather part does not stretch at all so it may fit tight on the arms. I could barely move my arms. Not sure if sizing up would help. Sadly, returning it.
